Product Description:

The BTV30.1CA-32R-50C-D-140200-FW belongs to the BTV30 Machine Control Terminals series produced by Bosch Rexroth Indramat. It is a panel-mounted machine control terminal for CNC installations, linking operator commands to numerical control hardware while keeping the computing electronics in a single slide-in module. The device serves as the primary user interface for machining centers that need onboard visualization, direct key access to machine states, and local handling of stored part programs. This arrangement keeps visualization and control functions together at the machine front instead of splitting them across separate operator panels and computer modules.

A Pentium slot PC running at Pentium 166 MHz provides the processing power, and the operating memory is fixed at 32 MB of RAM. Graphic output appears on a 10.4" TFT color display with a 640 × 480 pixel matrix, giving a clear VGA-level view of coordinates, tool data, and alarm messages during machine operation. This screen size and resolution are suited to status pages, coordinate displays, and alarm windows commonly used on CNC systems. The unit accepts a nominal mains supply of 115/230 VAC ± 15%, and the autoranging supply section selects the proper input range without manual switching. Front protection reaches IP 65, which helps keep dust and coolant spray away from the display and keypad, while the rear housing remains ventilated at IP 20.

Permanent storage is provided by a minimum 500 MB hard drive, and a 3.5" 1.44 MB floppy disk drive is included for legacy file transfer. The hard drive stores local operating data, while the floppy drive supports older media still used on existing CNC equipment. Eight machine function buttons, identified as 8 keys, are arranged on the right side for direct cycle control, and the front panel also includes an American-layout membrane keyboard for BOF/MUI environments. The right-side button layout keeps dedicated machine functions separate from the main keyboard area. The slide-in frame measures 372 × 335 × 200 mm, and the unit has an overall mass of about 10.5 kg.
